Birth Day still birthing

wowzer what a day!

and Tigre' can say that 7-8 times!

Tigre' has what they call uterine neurusha (wildly misspelled), which mean her uterus does not get enough contractions by itself to push the puppies out.which means she was given oxipertocine to get her uterus to ush the puppies out.  Starting this morning with the first puppy out at the vets at 12:35pm, a beautiful black girl.  The next two came out relatively quick at the vets.  We then had a five hour rest after I brought Tigre' and four tiny puppies home. 

Getting worried and not wanting to injure Tigre' either, I headed to doggy emergency in Temecula.  On the 215 while I was on the phone to the vet, Tigre' had #5 puppy, a black beautiful little boy in the crate in the car, I pulled off the freeway in heavy traffic to find a puppy still in his sack.   After getting him out of such an auspecious situation, I dried him off with my T-Shirt and finished warming him up in my jacket.

Quickly put him in with the other puppies I turning around and came home to add another two black puppies. 

I know people are watching the blog, so I'm updating this pretty quick.  In all of the commotion I spilled my ice tea into the lap top ... not sure it will work again, but we are hoping it will.

so far, and we have one more in there,

Tigre' had two girls and five boys (plus one if it survives) oh, all of them are black.  A few have a kiss of white on a toe, a chin, one had a tiny white slash of white on the chest.

Names have been assigned but will geet to that tomorrow.

congratuations to all, these are really beautfiul puppies.  The blue collared boy has already gotten the nickname Everly (Lil' Ev).

oh, thought this was funny ... the "E" litter was born, well have of them in Lake Elsinore ... ha!  how 'bout that?!

congrat's we still need prayers for that last puppy, but looks like we have an entire litter that's black.

peace out
Paula and Jim
... and the pudels
